  • The Population Education Transition Curve

    Open AccessDavid P Baker, William C Smith et al.ARTICLEDemography2017Cited by: 12References: 57

    The salutary effect of formal education on health-risk behaviors and mortality is extensively documented: ceteris paribus, greater educational attainment leads to healthier lives and longevity. Even though the epidemiological evidence has strongly indicated formal education as a leading “social vaccine,” there is intermittent reporting of counter-education gradients for health-risk behavior and associated outcomes for certain populations during s…

  • Education, Skills, and Wage Gaps in Canada and the United States

    Open AccessWilliam C Smith, F FernandezARTICLEInternational Migration2017Cited by: 14References: 4

    We analyse data from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies to reveal that immigrants in Canada and the United States make over $200 less per month than native‐born workers. In the United States, immigrants disproportionately work in low‐wage occupations, leading to large mean national differences between immigrants and native workers. The wage differential disappears after accounting for education and cognitive skil…

    Open AccessWilliam C SmithARTICLELatin American Politics and Society2014Cited by: 2References: 22

    The field of Latin American politics has undeniably achieved major advances in the last several decades. Nevertheless, one detects a growing intellectual unease and a sense that the excitement engendered by the pathbreaking work and heated debates of previous decades-focusing on authoritarianism, democratization, and market restructuring and related structural transformations-has waned and perhaps given way to a certain "normalization" of our int…

  • Los ejes de la tercera vía en América Latina

    Open AccessRoberto Patricio Korzeniewicz, William C SmithARTICLEAMÉRICA LATINA HOY2009

    Este artículo analiza los desafíos actuales para el desarrollo de una Tercera Vía de corte social democrático en América Latina.

  • El movimiento doble

    Open AccessWilliam C Smith, Roberto Patricio KorzeniewiczARTICLEColombia Internacional2006

    The Summit process in the Americas and the complex negotiations around the FTAA are specific manifestations, at a regional level, of broader transformations in the international politics and the world-economy. But in a “double movement,” the global expansion of markets has simultaneously generated pressures that seek a social and political regulation of those markets. Thus, regional networks and coalitions and, in some cases, transnational social…

  • Poverty, Inequality, and Growth in Latin America

    Open AccessRoberto Patricio Korzeniewicz, William C SmithARTICLELatin American Research Review2000

    This article revisits debates concerning poverty, inequality, and development in Latin America and explores a possible “high road” to globalization capable of achieving both more rapid economic growth and significant and lasting reductions in poverty and inequality. In reconnoitering the contours of this path, the authors probe a partial convergence in theory, concepts, and policies that may offer new opportunities for bridging the yawning chasms…
